Overall, a gorgeous copy of a unique book, an important collaborative effort between Joyce and Matisse. Slocum & Cahoon A22. This historic edition of Ulysses was made possible by George Macy, the founder of the Limited Editions Club (LEC). After the US obscenity ban on Ulysses was lifted in 1933, Macy sought to pair the book with a suitable artist. He eventually struck a deal with Matisse for $5000. Matisses illustrations come from six episodes in The Odyssey - Calypso, Aeolus, Cyclops, Nausicaa, Circe, and Ithaca. While Ulysses is significantly connected to Homers Odyssey (Ulysses is the Roman name for Odysseus, the hero of Homers epic), there is some controversy in the fact that Matisse chose to base his illustrations on The Odyssey rather than Joyces book. It is rumored that Matisse never actually read Joyces book prior to illustrating it (it is also rumored that Joyce stopped short of signing all 1500 copies he only signed 250 - because of his anger upon learning that Matisse hadnt read the book, though there might be less merit to this story). Ulysses is arguably the greatest and most sought-after LEC book, rivaled only by Aristophanes Lysistrata, which was published in 1934 and signed and illustrated by Pablo Picasso. . Signed. First Thus. Hard Cover. Near Fine. Illus. by Matisse, Henri.
